Gotcha. I probably was.


And to Duke... while overrule may have been an incorrect term, they have made rulings that conflicted with previous ones, essentially rendering them obsolete.

It was a 5-4 vote. It's possible that it was an incorrect ruling that will be nullified in the future at some point.

Until then, it's the law of the land and as far as the Probate judges and others defying the orders... while I agree with their stance.. they're incorrect in doing what they're doing. They should resign or issue marriage licenses. As one of faith (not always on par), I would think.. "render unto Caesar" would fall into this category. If they are unable to do so due to their convictions, then they need to resign. I don't fault them for their beliefs, but they should be willing to give up their jobs if it's in conflict.. again.. imho.
